Nil-all draw beside the seaside

Zero goals at full-time but still an interesting game against Taroona White. The Devils had the best of the play (and scoring chances) but just couldn't boot any goals! Most of the credit for this should go to Taroona's busy goalkeeper, however their team made it hard to score by swarming around the goals - you can count Taroona's entire team (9 players) in the bottom photo!

Our forwards - Bella, AJ and Millie - kept persistent pressure on Taroona, assisted by mid-fielders Mae, Rosie and Tessa who kept feeding the ball forward. Alice Cox had a couple of scoring chances and looked good, as did Millie. Although there wasn't much work for our backs, Bijou defended well against the few that got through. Lillie looked after goal in the first half with Eva in place after the orange break. And Tessa - get some height into those throw-ins and you'll see how useful they can be for attack!
